Long ago, a metal ore was discovered that could change everything we know about magic and energy. A special workshop was built to use it for building and crafting. However, this metal was dangerous, and if fallen into the wrong hands, would be destructive. The workshop was sealed away along with all its secrets. Where is it hidden? It may be closer than you think.

Search the bookcase on the east wall in house southwest of the bank in Seers' village.

Instructions:

Go to the house southwest of the bank in Seers' village and search the bookcase on the east wall to find a Battered book. After you read the Battered book, use your knife on the book and you will get a Battered key. Do not drop the Battered book, you will need it later to make the Elemental Shield.

Go to the building north which has a anvil in it and use the key on the Odd Looking Wall. Then go down the stairs.

A map of the places for some of the next steps:

When you're in, go down the west path and try and mine a rock. You will be attacked by an level 35 Earth elemental. Kill the Earth elemental and it will drop an Elemental ore, pick it up.

Head into the northern room where you'll find a Water wheel which needs to be restarted. To do so, turn the Water controls on the east side and then the west side and the red indicators on them should turn green. Now pull the lever next to the wheel and it will start working again.

After that go to the east passage and fix the bellows. This is where the leather, thread and needle comes in. When the bellows have been fixed pull the switch. (You can also find some leather in the crates in the room).

Search the small crate in the northeast part of the central room and you will find a Stone bowl. When you find it, go down the south passage.

Use the bowl on the Lava trough to fill it with lava.

Use the lava filled bowl on the nearby furnace to relight it. Once done, use your Elemental ore and 4 pieces of Coal on the furnace to smelt an Elemental bar.

Now go back to the center and use your Elemental metal on the Workbench. You will need to have the Battered book in your inventory to make the shield or it will tell you that you need instructions.

When you've made the Elemental shield you've completed the quest.

Congratulations! Quest Complete!
